Blizzard Of 2006! Who's In It???

[Kteacher]

I'm in western Ma., and it doesn't look like we will get as much-maybe 6-8". I don't leave for any place warm until April, but maybe I'll use today to try on bathing suits :)

[Bonnie Voyager]

I'm in Newark, Delaware and we have about 11 inches of snow. It appears to have stopped now but the wind is supposed to kick up soon making matters worse. I don't plan to go anywhere today, so that's okay! My whole house is decorated in a palm tree motif, so regardless what it's like outside....inside is always tropical!!! :D

[SuzieQ123]

Howell NJ.....I don't know how much but its A LOT probably going to end up with 12 or more---

 

next trip is the Explorer of the Seas from Bayonne NJ 5/19.

 

trying to talk the Husband into the Crowne Princess for Thanksgiving week.....currently booked on Freedom of the Seas but 1. too expensive 2. don't want to do Western Carrib again

I am just east of Providence in Massachusetts. We have 6 inches so far but the worst is yet to come. Very windy out there. I leave for my cruise in 17 days. I can't wait. I need to see some Green grass and trees for a change.

[kruhmkidz]

Central Maryland checking in. Well it looks to be about 12 to 18 inches out there. The kids are out playing, and I only see the dogs head and tale. Well how else would you spend your birthday.:eek:

We don't leave until Dec for our Enchantment cruise, so I have alot longer to wait then any of you:( .

Hi everyone! I'm in Brooklyn and am in 16" so far. It's going strong and now they are talking about a band of snow coming that's snowing 2-4" per hour!! :eek: I hate winter!! I'm leaving for warmer climates in December which just seems so far away, but it's a lot to look forward to. Stay warm, everybody!

Sitting here in El Cajon [san Diego County] California, the sun is shinning, probably be about 85 degrees like yesterday.:)

[dave&micki]

We're on Martha's Vineyard with about 6" and 40mph gusts!!!! Heading for our cruise on 3/20/06 ~ and we cant wait!!!!!!

[luckyprincess]

:D How kind of you to share!!!

[Lake Cruiser]

Berwick Maine checking in. The snow is coming down hard and blowing sideways. We have about 4" on the ground and it is piling up fast. Our bird feeders are busy this morning and quite colorful with blue jays and bright red cardinals. We leave on the Jewel next week so we will make the best use of today by packing and having warm and green thoughts.

 

Moxie99 - The snow is on its way to you. Does your name make reference to the soft drink?

Blizzard conditions here in Beverly Massachusetts. About 12" so far. And it doesn't look like it's stopping. Dreaming of our cruise in May! I hope everyone is well!!! I wonder how many missed their cruise today because of Airport closings! I hope they have insurance..

[cage keeper]

I'm here in south central CT. and we wouldn't dare try to go out. Blizzard conditions. :eek: Perfect for planning a cruise to ST. Thomas:D :D :D

Live from Queens, NY:

 

We're looking at 15 inches and lots more to come. As I look out of my window, I see huge, mothball sized snowflakes falling, swirling around in 20mph winds. My God, it is beautiful! Especially from in here where it's warm. ;)

 

A winter wonderland (for now).

 

I'm feeling quite blessed to be inside, with the house fully stocked with food and supplies, the heat and electricity working, and knowing the snow blower is gassed up and ready to go.

 

Mayor Bloomberg has just admonished us New Yorkers that the law requires us to have sidewalks cleared within 4 hours of the end of the snowfall, so I'll be out there sometime this afternoon playing in the snow.

 

I hope all cruisers from the Northeast got out to make their ships this weekend. For those of us in the midst of it, enjoy the storm and enjoy planning your cruises. :)

[Firefighterhoop]

Sitting at home, 12 inches of snow.

Flying out on American Airlines....oh, geez..I am doing a lot of praying today.

 

Any know if the flights will be cancelled tomorrow.

 

I hope you have travel insurance!!!

[Bcoll]

20 inches and we're done....

[decruisers]

Delaware here...very untypical snow. Thank goodness we dont leave until October. This was the weather I wanted to leave when we were cruising in January, instead it was 60 degrees :eek: . Go figure. Hope everyone makes their air flights and happy cruising.....raise a drink and think of all of us snow bunnies while you are sunning in the caribbean:D .

[loveysbydesign]

Yup, stuck here in Alburtis, PA....between Allentown and Kutztown. As of 10:54 this morning we have about 1 1/2 feet of snow and it's still snowing! My kiddos are loving it....but boy I can't wait til May 15th when we'll be on our 1st cruise aboard the SOS!!!!!

[KelJ]

Here in Ebensburg, Pennsylvania, my husband just came in from running the snowblower and said we only got four or five inches. Early yesterday they were calling for us to get nine to twelve, but then the storm shifted. Guess we got lucky this time. We're used to big storms.

 

All of you getting hit hard, stay warm! All of you leaving for your flights, leave early and drive carefully. Best of luck!

[powersl]

In Michigan with no new snow and that's ok with me.

 

Poor cruisers leaving today from New York. - Hope they bring their shovels along.

[smeyer418]

NY weather bureau is reporting that 23 inches have fallen in central park, making it the second worse snow storm in NY City records. It is more snow that the blizzard of 1888.....now its got two more inches to go for the record...

[Soxfan05]

We live on the south shore...supposed to get the "blockbuster" 20+ inches. Kids are loving it....been out shoveling twice so far.

[luckyprincess]

I think I might head over to Central Park for some sledding or nature walk. I just have to see that much snow! I don't know about you, but it's still snowing hard here in Brooklyn!

[Rala]

We are 20 mi. SW of Boston closing in on a foot of snow and more to come. We are on the Vision 3/12. Praying for no more snow and no propulsion problems!! That's not too much to ask, is it ?????

[liv4vaca]

I am in Mass., looking at all the snow piling up, but dreaming of our cruise. We also leave a week from today on the Jewel. So...I will spend today packing and being very thankful that I was not to fly out today! The snow does not seem as bad when I know that I will be in the sunny Caribbean in just seven days!
